Leatherman Style CS Knife Review

Let’s face it. We can’t hunt or fish as much as we’d like.

All to often, we are stuck working at home, or making a living to enjoy our outdoor passion. Recently, I came upon a product that is helpful for everyday lives. The Leatherman Style CS Pocket Knife, is a great little tool to have in your pocket, on a daily  basis.

The Leatherman Style CS has a number of features that are helpful:

1) Carabiner – Great for attaching to your belt loop, briefcase, or opening that beer at 5 o’ clock!

2) Knife – The knife that comes on the Leatherman Style CS is very sharp, will be perfect for opening boxes, or cutting anything you need on a daily basis.

3) Scissors – I’ve seen the scissors on other multitools…..these scissors are superior, I promise.

4) Nail File / Screwdriver – This tool is small, and great for working on smaller type screws, on electronics or small hand tools. The nail file speaks for itself!

5) Tweezers – Again, ideally you’ll never have to use them – but shit happens! Nice to have if some

Overall, this little tool makes my life easier, and I’m sure you’ll agree. For only $18, you can save yourself some hassle and heartache – just get yourself a Leatherman Style CS!

Leatherman Skeletool CX Review

Manufacturer: Leatherman

Product Name: Skeletool CX

Product Description: The latest Leatherman tool comes packaged in a nice little black and yellow box complete with a User’s Guide booklet.  This knife has many features:

  • Pliers
  • Drop Point Knife
  • Wire Cutters
  • Bit Driver
  • Carabiner/Bottle Opener
  • Pocket Clip
  • Extra Bit Holder

Pros

I have owned this product for nearly four months have put it through many tests.  I have found this knife to be very tough and rigid.  The knife is very sharp and the carabiner keeps it attached to my turkey vest or D-loop on my fanny pack.  It also comes in handy when you need to open a cold beverage!  The bit driver is very helpful and works quite well on small to medium sized projects.  The pliers are helpful strong, though a bit small.

Cons

The cons of this tool are far and few between. I lost the extra bit out of the Bit Holder, right off the bat.  I ordered another one, and Leatherman’s customer service was very cooperative. I do like the extra bit feature, thought I believe it could be more secure. Also, I found the pliers to be a bit small, but perfect for many uses in the field, or in the shop.

Overall Impression: My overall impression of the Leatherman Skeletool CX is very good. I would recommend this tool to anyone looking for a tough, simple tool for everyday use.
